Most of these extracted records are indexed by name in the '''International Genealogical Index (IGI)''' available on [https://www.familysearch.org www.familysearch.org]. Every group of extracted records has been assigned a '''batch number'''. If you know the '''batch number''' of an extracted film for a parish you are interested in (perhaps obtained from a record previously found indexed on FamilySearch.org), you can do a search on [https://www.familysearch.org www.familysearch.org] for just that batch number and the results will be ALL of the extracted names from that record, in alphabetical order.
